Black Friday graffiti

Shoppers at Sears in Boynton Beach were greeted with more than Open signs at 4 a.m.

Someone had spray painted “BUY NOTHING” and “be more free, buy less crap” and “stop greed: don’t consume what you don’t need” near the door.

“I swear, that graffiti was there before I got here,” joked one customer standing in line, who said he arrived around 4 a.m.

Boca Raton resident Susan Curran did add, though, that she is planning to cut back on her spending this year, especially with the economy hurting her wallet right now.

“I’m just not spending the money I used to,” she said. “I’m not being frivolous. I’m making it count.”
But black Friday is a tradition for her. And Sears has a great GPS on sale today, and she wants to buy it for her son. So she ignores the graffiti and waits.
